iWritten by WhatSchool from official school data (Get Information about Schools, DfE and Ofsted).Welcome to Navenby Church of England School. Thank you for visiting the Navenby Church of England Primary School website. The School is at the heart of the small, rural Lincolnshire village of Navenby with around 200 pupils on roll.
The school building and environment house a range of appealing facilities including a fantastic outdoor Reception area, drama studio, library, bicycle and scooter store, trim trail, community cairn, outdoor classroom and a stunning field. Our Church School vision is based on the concept of 'family': rooted in faith, strengthened by family .
The Bible tells us that we are brothers and sisters in Christ and part of the family of God (Ephesians 2:19; 3:14-15). Our 'school family' promotes values, models positive interactions and delivers unfaltering care to instil healthy well-being, confidence, independence and ultimately a sense of belonging .
Children are provided with support and security coupled with challenge and aspiration so everyone can flourish and achieve in God's name. We collaborate together, inspiring curiosity about learning, developing character and providing opportunity for spiritual growth.
